In complete contrast to the intense situation in various parts of the country, cops in Delhi and Bengaluru offered tea, bananas and rice to the demonstrators detained for protesting against the over Citizenship (Amendment) Act.
In the national capital, the demonstrators were detained earlier in the day for defying Section 144 in the wake of massive protests against the amended Citizenship act. During the tough stance, the police personals decided to take care of the detainees. The refreshments were offered at Surajmal Stadium and Rajiv Gandhi Stadium in Bawana area of Northwest Delhi.
Several senior citizens, among those detained, were diabetic and complained of low sugar. The police arranged glucose powder for the diabetics.
Similarly in Bengaluru, as many as 120 demonstrators were taken to Mangala Kalayana Mantapa — a wedding hall — in Kormangala by the police. Realising it was lunch time, the police immediately arranged for tomato rice to feed protesters.
A hotel nearby was tasked with preparing and delivering the lunch to the marriage hall.
